I live within 5 mins walking distance of my local exchange

and heres my line stats.

Thanks to the BRAS profile i have a 6.5mbit ip throughput maximum
You're interleaved, that's why you have that sync rate. The overheads of interleaving take a chunk. You could actually achieve 8Mbps sync comfortably.

Speak to your ISP and ask to be switched to fast path and you'll sync up at 8128kbps, providing 7.15Mbps BRAS profile.
